Jonathan Charles Westerman

Jonathan Charles “John” Westerman, born in Austin, Texas on June 6, 1983, and passed away unexpectedly on December 7th, 2025, at the age of 42. John leaves behind his wife, Nohemi Westerman; children Tyler and Katherine Westerman; parents, Lori Ibarra (and Abdon Ibarra) and Charlie Westerman (and Petra Westerman); brothers Charles Westerman (and Monica Westerman), Joshua Westerman (and Zuri Maciel), Kenneth Lloyd Gonzales, Kevin Gonzales, and Richard Thompson (and Ilyssa Thompson); his sister, Melissa Winterland (and Randy Winterland), and maternal grandmother Helen Moore, as well as his nephews, nieces, many aunts , uncles and cousins. John had a smile that could light up a room and eyes that always seemed to twinkle. His siblings remember him as goofy, fun, quick-witted, and loyal. Though they often fought like siblings do, they defended each other without hesitation. Whether racing around Me Maw’s coffee table for the TV remote or trading playful jabs, John knew how to make you smile. He loved to talk, loved movies, and especially loved good food. He was endlessly resourceful and had a personality that could win over anyone. Though he nearly flunked Spanish in school, when he met Nohemi, he learned the language and became fluent — all for the love of a woman. He never met a stranger and, just as remarkably, never seemed to make an enemy. In his younger years, he loved computers, but his greatest passion became working on cars with his dad and brothers. John had a natural gift with his hands, and he later spent years driving trucks. Above all, John loved his family. Every conversation with his mom began with him asking how his Me Ma was doing. When he married Nohemi, he was so proud — proud of the life he was building, proud of the future he dreamed of, and overwhelmingly proud when he became a father to Tyler and Katherine. He treasured being their dad. His love for his family never wavered. He shared with those close to him how much he longed to make his mom and dad proud. His hope, more than anything, was to be able to give them his best - and to be a son they were proud of. John will be remembered for his contagious smile, his humor, his resourcefulness, and his heart for his family. His memory will continue to light up the rooms he’s no longer in. John will be deeply missed by his family and all who knew him. For where your treasure is, there your heart will also be. Luke 12:34
